HAPPINESS
Carla remained speechless as she couldn’t find the right word to say. She was still standing dumbstruck when Layla came out from the room.
“Good morning Carla..” Layla greeted as she quickly walked away, the day was Saturday and she had planned to go visit Aurora today.
“Good morning..” Carla managed to say back to her despite the intense heat that was running through her veins.
“Do you need anything else?” Nolan asked as he wanted to go back to sleep.
“No , no I don’t..” she stammered, turning her back to leave, Nolan going inside his room.
*********
Layla knocked happily on Aurora’s door, her face beaming with smiles. She felt so happy to be seeing her after a long time.
“I’m coming..” Aurora answered from inside and a few minutes later, she opened the door to see who it was.
“Layla!” Aurora exclaimed happily as they both hugged each other tightly.
“How are you, I’ve missed you!!’ Layla pouted, still hugging Aurora.
“Me too, please come in..” Aurora invited as they both walked inside the house.
“So tell me..” Aurora began after they’ve both settled down.
“Tell you what?” Layla asked curiously.
“What’s the secret? I mean what’s been going on with you lately, you’re glowing Layla!” Aurora deadpanned as Layla laughed.
“Oh please, I’m just the way I was before..” she waved her off.
“No girl, truth be told. You look more stunning and beautiful than before. There’s nothing you’re going to tell me to dissuade me..” Aurora said, shaking her head.
“Come on, I look just the same..” Layla insisted.
“Trust me you don’t, by the way Xander was at my house..” Aurora began as she’d been meaning to tell Layla about it but felt it would be better to tell her in person.
“Really! what for?” Layla asked in surprise.
“He came here to ask about you. It seems like Nolan asked him to run a background check on you..” Aurora informed as Layla shook her head slowly.
“I see..” she uttered, nodding her head repeatedly.
“You told him about your pregnancy?” Aurora raised a brow at Layla with a questioning look on her face.
“I had no choice and was in a tight spot. Scarlet knows where I work..” Layla announced.
“Oh wow! This is getting more intense..” Aurora expressed.
“First it was Xander who knows Nolan might be next and you know what would happen if Nolan happens to meet scarlet. She will paint your name black and then Nolan would see no reason to believe you again when you finally tell him the truth and also how long do you plan on hiding the truth, very soon your baby bump will start showing ….”
“And they’re already a few changes in your body. Your breasts are getting bigger!” Aurora pointed out as Layla quickly used her hands to cup her breasts.
“Really?” She gasped.
“Yes and that’s one of the signs of pregnancy. Soon from now, you’ll be adding more weight..” Aurora could see the slight changes in Layla, she was increasing each passing day very soon it would become so noticable.
“Don’t worry Aurora. I’ll tell him soon” she assured.
“And when is the soon going to come!” Aurora snapped. The last thing she wanted was Layla getting hurt by the end of the day. What if Nolan denies her after everything, she should have just come clean from the start.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
“Very soon, don’t worry”
“By the way, I have something to ask you?” Layla began.
“And what’s that?” Aurora queried curiously.
“It’s about my friend..” she said softly.
“I’m your only friend Layla..” Aurora emphasized. Layla hardly made friends, she was a girl of her own elements.
“She’s a friend I made at work..” Layla quickly chimed in.
“So what happened to that new friend of yours?” Aurora questioned in sarcasm.
“She’s pregnant..” Layla informed. Actually the question was about her.
“So?”
“She came to me for advice and I didn’t know what to say, so I decided to ask you instead..”
“The thing is this my friend is pregnant and is having s*x with her husband. She’s married. And it’s a hard core s*x. So she asked me if it was safe? You know to have s*ex during pregnancy?” Layla asked as she grinned sheepishly.
“This is not the first time you’re asking this but if you insist on knowing my answer. It’s not bad. In Fact it’s advisable” Aurora responded.
“Really?” Layla squealed in excitement.
“Yes it is. Especially for first timers like you Layla. You were a virgin before, so it’s only normal if you have sex while pregnant, so you could expand your Vagina more and you wouldn’t have difficulty when delivering…” Aurora explained with a mischievous smirk on her face.
She knew that Layla was not talking about her friend but herself.
“Oh I see. Wait what did you mean by me? It’s not me! It’s a friend of mine” Layla denied bluntly.
“Layla, we’ve been friends for a long time. You can’t lie to me..” Aurora said in a serious tone. It was very easy to catch Layla’s lie. She was a bad liar.
“I…” Layla stammered sheepishly as she brushed a strand of her hair away from her forehead.
“So you’re banging your boss. You’re now a bad girl, Layla!!” Aurora cheered as she laughed.
“No, it’s not what you think it is.. ” Layla quickly waved her off.
“Then what is it?” She nudged Layla’s shoulders who pursed her lips in confusion.
“Seriously Layla what’s going on between the two of you?” She grilled.
“Um.. it’s a long story..” Layla replied. She had no idea how she would start explaining herself to Aurora about the whole werewolf stuff, Nolan had still not given her a reply and she was waiting for him to do so.
“You have my support on anything you do girl..” Aurora assured placing her hand on Layla’s shoulders.
“Don’t just do anything that you know you will regret in the future..” she advised.
“I won’t..” Layla promised.
“Good, come here..” Aurora motioned for her to come closer as she hugged her tight.
She wished nothing but happiness for Layla.
